Thailand: Island Hopping!

We decided to get away from the hustle and bustle of Phuket City and go on a day cruise to the Phi Phi Islands!  The scenery was breathtaking - exactly what we imagined from seeing Thailand in movies.  In fact, The Beach was filmed at one of the islands we stopped, Koh Phi Phi Don. 
We booked this adventure with our friends Nathan and Katie, who also have a young daughter.  It was so great being with them for several reasons.  Not only are they good company, but the girls could keep each other entertained and we could take turns watching the kids so we could also get some adult time.  Plus, if one of us forgot something (like a swimsuit - no, that wasn't me ;0), the other family usually had an extra!!!  What a lifesaver!

During the cruise, we stopped several times and were able to swim and feed fish right in the ocean, snorkel and explore one of the larger islands.  It was a fantastic day getaway!  If we had a little more time, and didn't have a toddler, we would have liked to gone kayaking in the caves.  Maybe in the future ...






ahh - a few minutes without Ava!

Enjoying the beach!
